Agamemnon1 Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Does any one remember the small zoo next to the Town Hall ? and the monkey house that was there i think it was near where the bowling green pavillion is now . Well apparently when the monkeys and some of the other creatures eventually passed away the powers that be decided that it would be a good idea to have the poor mites stuffed ! Well, there is to be an exhibition of these poor unfortunate creatures at the local museum. It begins next Wednesday and will be for just the day. Entry is free. Its not something that i will support but theres "nowt as queer as folk " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Any chance of doing the same with the residents of the Town Hall? If we have them all stuffed they won't be able to stuff the rest of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 now now don't be putting ideas into peoples heads do vaguely remember the zoo. didn't some of the birds that were there get transferred to walton gardens. was always a highlight of a trip to town when i was younger to walk through and stare at the animals.

Bazj Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 was always a highlight of a trip to town when i was younger to walk through and stare at the animals. I used to do the same Sid and I still do, only now we go and stare at the chavs and hoodies that seem to populate the town centre these days...... much more fun to watch than a few birds!!
